Kathatonia: INTO THE HEART OF A CITY →
kathatonia:
Since I had a day off from work today, I went out to pamper myself a bit. After getting my nails done, I decided to stay a while in Starbucks and spend some quiet time. I was looking for something to read while sipping my white chocolate mocha and I saw this copy of Travelife magazine lying on the chair behind me. I picked it up and started browsing and came across this article...

The Swan
Did you too see it, drifting, all night, on the black river? Did you see it in the morning, rising into the silvery air - An armful of white blossoms, A perfect commotion of silk and linen as it leaned into the bondage of its wings; a snowbank, a bank of lilies, Biting the air with its black beak? Did you hear it, fluting and whistling A shrill dark music – like the rain pelting the trees – like a...

I guess in a nutshell, this is what being in prod is for me. Making stuff I actually believe in. :D
Behold - Johnoy Danao meets Mackie Torres, a fan who covered Johnoy’s hit song Ulan on ukelele. We brought the two together one rainy afternoon on Maginhawa street, and amidst books, trikes, rain, and milktea, recorded three songs and the first episode of UNCOVERED was born :D Enjoy!
ManilaMan Productions’ latest project: UNCOVERED. ”Uncovered is where local musicians come together to jam with talented cover artists.” :D We’ve been working on it for a while, and it’s finally really really happening! Here’s the teaser of our first episode, featuring Johnoy Danao and Mackie Torres, who covered his song Ulan on uke :D

Near the Wall of a House
Yehuda Amichai
Near the wall of a house painted to look like stone, I saw visions of God.
A sleepless night that gives others a headache gave me flowers opening beautifully inside my brain.
And he who was lost like a dog will be found like a human being and brought back home again.
Love is not the last room: there are others after it, the whole length of the corridor that has no end.

Wait
Galway Kinnell
Wait, for now. Distrust everything, if you have to. But trust the hours. Haven’t they carried you everywhere, up to now? Personal events will become interesting again. Hair will become interesting. Pain will become interesting. Buds that open out of season will become lovely again. Second-hand gloves will become lovely again, their memories are what give them the need for other...

A Renewal
James Merrill
Having used every subterfuge To shake you, lies, fatigue, or even that of passion, Now I see no way but a clean break. I add that I am willing to bear the guilt.
You nod assent. Autumn turns windy, huge, A clear vase of dry leaves vibrating on and on. We sit, watching. When I next speak Love buries itself in me, up to the hilt.

Huwag mo akong iiwan Tulad ng pag-iwan ng anghel sa kanyang pakpak Nalimutan sa bus na gumarahe sa gabing walang buwan Huwag mo akong iiwan Tulad ng pag-iwan ng buwan sa kaniyang mata Nahulog sa sapang nananaginip ng dilim na walang pintuan Huwag mo akong iiwan Tulad ng pag-iwan ng hangin sa kaniyang dila Nauhaw sa kakahiyaw ng ‘huwag mo akong iiwan’
- Merlinda Bobis
